Hello,

What should I do to get beyond that error message?
I'm using Debian on an AMD64, context package is version 2009.11.26-2
way too old .. luatex as well as context moved on (and luatools in no longer
used)
FWIW, I get the same error message on my TL2010 installation.
$luatex --version
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.67.0-2011042320 (rev 4192)
$context --version

I am pretty sure that ConTeXt in TL2010 was working at some stage and
failed after I updated. I normally just use the minimals, so I never
bothered to dig into this.
